Friends of the
Entomology Research Museum

From Diana Ruiz

The UCR Friends of the Entomology Research Museum (FERM) is a campus organization dedicated to supporting the mission of the Entomology Research Museum. FERM has quarterly general meetings of its members and also sponsors a Museum open house every Thursday evening in which FERM members and the general public may come to work on entomology projects, get specimens identified by experts, and socialize in the context of entomology in general. Annual membership in FERM is $10 and the money is used to support FERM projects, such as purchase of supplies and equipment for the Museum and small research grants to students. Members are entitled to annual subscription of the newsletter and participation in FERM-sponsored field trips, meetings, and other programs. For further information, contact

Greg Ballmer (787-3725) or Doug Yanega (787-4315).
